Mike Graham, the senior design producer at Activision, showed me a demo of a level about half way through the new game. All 300 toys from the older games will work with the new game and with the new portal, as well as the old portals.Pricing for digital packs is still to be determined, and more details on the iPad experience will come soon. If they buy new SuperCharger toys, those will work on the old portals. This pack comes with two digital versions of the Start Pack toys: Instant Hot Streak and Instant Spitfire.

They can digitally download the full game, plug in the old portal and be ready to play. This allows players that have old portals to bypass the purchase of a new portal. The job of stopping him falls to Master Eon, who saw the warning signs and assembled a special team of Skylanders to pilot a new fleet of vehicles.įor the consoles, the Digital Portal Owners pack can be downloaded from the first party marketplace of your choice. The villain Kaos is back with his most sinister weapon ever, a Death Star-like “Doomstation of Ultimate Doomstruction” capable of eating the sky itself.
AUTOMATION GAME SUPERCHARGER MODS
If you take secret short cuts, you may find hidden mods such as a volcanic booster engine that spews lava rocks. The portal has a slot for “traps” that you can use from last year’s Skylanders: Trap Team.Īs you play, you can gather experience points for tricking out your vehicles and upgrading their weapons. By comparison, Disney Infinity 3.0 will cost $65, but you get one less character. The individual vehicles will cost $15 and the SuperChargers characters will cost $13. The Skylanders SuperChargers Starter Pack with a portal and three characters will cost $75. I saw a demo on the PlayStation 4, and it will also come out on the PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Wii U, 3DS, and the iPad. It uses a modified version of the existing Alchemy game engine. In addition to launching new toys, Vicarious Visions has upgraded the graphics for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. In the sky, you can engage in aerial dogfights and fly with 360 degrees of control. At sea, you can dive underwater or surf the waves. While driving, you can pull stunts, skid, and drift.
It has vehicle specific minigames and puzzles. The vehicles help push the gameplay of Skylanders into new territory. “The SuperCharger can modify the vehicle and use a ‘super-charge’ combo,” said Wilson. Those vehicles include race cars, motorcycles, boats, tanks, helicopters, jets, and submarines. These vehicles work with all of the past 300 toy characters, but you’ll unlock special abilities if you use them with the unique SuperCharger character paired with the vehicle.Īll told, Activision will release 20 new SuperCharger characters and 20 vehicles. But if you put them on the newly redesigned Portal of Power, your characters can make use of them in the game world. All of the toys have moving parts and can be enjoyed as stand-alone toys. For the first time, vehicles such as hovercraft, helicopters, and landspeeders will unlock new kinds of combat and environments in the fantasy world of the Skylands.
